![]() One day I called the Dutch Corel office for a problem related to date conversions from Paradox to WordPerfect. Corel couldn't provide the answer but directed me to the Paradox newsgroups. "Hmm...why would they possibly invest time in my specific problem?", I sceptically thought. Luckily I took the chance anyway which turned out to be a true revelation. I suddenly understood what I read about internet becoming the world's global consciousness. And yes, at first I did crosspost and send attachments but I learned :-). Thanks to the help of the newsgroup's gurus and other contributors I managed to make my application work in a reasonably short amount of time, with good success. Special thanks to Liz Woodhouse and Denn Santoro for their amazing support and patience. In April 2000 I downloaded Vladimir Menkin's excellent, free, and time saving developer's tool ProView. After working with it for a while I sent Vladimir some wishes and after that I gradually became ProView's beta-tester, which is lots of fun to do. The best thing for me about Paradox is being able to discover new things every single day. Paradox makes sure you only have to say no to your customer when you want to. It does it all! Regarding analyses I like Mark Twain's quote: "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics." In this respect Paradox helps me in lots of ways to get closer to the truth or, if you like, further from statistics :-).
